[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:TJProductionLogo(323x84).gif
Thanks for uploading Image:TJProductionLogo(323x84).gif. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).
The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images on Wikipedia is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: {{TemplateName}}.
Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. You can get help on image copyright tagging from Wikipedia talk:Image copyright tags. -- Carnildo 23:34, 2 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Image:TJProductionLogo(323x84).gif - Taco John's logo
Hi. I uploaded a more graphical version of the Taco John's company logo for use on the Taco John's article. I am posting this on your talk page because you made an edit to that article, or may have added and/or uploaded the previous logo to the article. Because this image is now "orphaned," it may soon be subject to deletion, as it is copyrighted and cited fair use. If you have any comments or whatever, just leave one for my talk page or reply to this thread. Thanks --Ted 04:03, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
[edit] A fellow editor's plea for civility
Greetings. I was brought to your attention by your most recent edit to Let's Make a Deal, which had an edit summary which didn't make sense for the article.
Based on several threads I've seen in edit summaries and talk page discussion, I'd like to ask that you read the following articles fully, with consideration to others that you work with on articles day-to-day. They represent Wikipedia policy.
- Wikipedia:Civility
- Wikipedia:No personal attacks
- Wikipedia:Etiquette
- Wikipedia:Assume good faith
- Wikipedia:Please do not bite the newcomers
I'm speaking specifically of edit summaries with things like: "(This) is assumed as the grand prize, you idiot. Please keep your hands off any future article." "Mike O Malley being considered as host isn't true at all...unless someone out there can prove it. Quit posting your inane wishes." "Cleaned up to look halfway decent. "TV" removed, as that is assumed. Titles removed, this information is redundant. Grammar cleanup. Who the hell wrote this crap before?"
...the addition on a user's talk page of: If he doesn't want any harsh comments, he'll stop posting inaccurate information. This isn't fu**ing preschool, where we have to be "nice" to each other. However, if y'all want inaccurate stuff posted here...so be it.
It is completely reasonable for a person to ask that they not receive personal attacks on their talk page, or have the expectation that content there will not be edited for the purposes of a personal attack (the policies above outline this).
These examples mentioned, I strongly suggest reading the policy articles I linked to above. I believe you'll find that being "nice" is synonymous with being "civil", and some of the edits and behaviourisms you've exhibited could be construed as personal attacks, and/or non-civil behaviour. Thank you for your time and consideration on this matter.

[edit] A Response
That's all very fine and nice. Not the topic at hand. Last time I checked, Wikipedia was supposed to be an informational source, not one for opinions. If someone wants to post opinions, they can start an LJ. As for the LMAD article, I'll apologize. I was trying to revert all of his edits, and I inadvertently clicked on the one used for a "Grand Game" article. Now, if you'd rather have falsehoods and mistruths posted, that's fine, but you'll lose the respectable posters who actually know what the hell they're talking about. Modor
[edit] Bonus Game
Mark, quit changing the damn Bonus Game page. It's not wrong, and considering that you don't even like the show, I can't understand why you've suddenly become obsessed with this. Let it go.
And yes, I'm a TPIR fanboy. You make it sound like that's a bad thing. -TPIRFanSteve 12:03, 23 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] No personal attacks
Please see Wikipedia's no personal attacks policy. Comment on content, not on the contributor; personal attacks damage the community and deter users. Note that continued personal attacks may lead to blocks for disruption. Please stay cool and keep this in mind while editing. Thank you. ➨ ЯEDVERS 09:13, 15 September 2006 (UTC)
